- Summary:
- Italian citizens voted out the monarchy in 1946, and the last Italian dynasty ended with King Umberto II being forced into exile. The constitution of the Italian republic went into effect in 1948, and since then, governments have changed as often as once a year. Most of Italy's postwar governments have been blighted by internal power struggles. The political landscape is as varied and colorful as the country's history, reflecting the Italian flair for opportunism, individualism, and ingenuity. Arguing about politics is a favorite pastime among Italians. While political corruption scandals are becoming scarcer, they haven't stopped entirely, and the Machiavellian attitude of many of Italy's politicians fuels much heated debate. Learn more about the local nuances of Italy's parliamentary system.
